FAQ's
Update as of 1 July 2025
As of 1 July 2025, Scooter Hut is now under new ownership and operated by Flux Motion Pty Ltd (ABN 47 687 891 354). While we’ve acquired the assets and brand, we did not acquire the previous company’s legal entity, and are therefore not legally responsible for purchases made prior to this date.
That said, we value the long-standing reputation of the Scooter Hut brand, and we're committed to supporting previous customers wherever we reasonably can.

Shipping & Delivery
Can I use PO Boxes or parcel lockers for delivery?
A: Unfortunately, we can’t deliver to PO Boxes, parcel lockers, or collection points at this time.
Do you offer overseas shipping?
A: We are not offering overseas shipping at the moment.
What are the dispatch and shipping timeframes?
A: Typically, deliveries take 1-5 business days for most metro areas in Australia. Please note that orders with lithium batteries may take longer since air freight can’t be used.
Do you guarantee shipping timeframes?
A: While we aim to meet our delivery estimates, shipping times can be affected by things like carrier delays, customs processing, or supply chain disruptions.
What should I do if my delivery is late?
A: If your order hasn’t arrived after 2 business days past the estimated delivery date, please reach out to our customer service team, and we’ll assist in tracking your shipment and resolving the issue.
2. Returns, Exchanges, and Refunds
How do I return a product?
A: You can return your purchase within 30 days to any Scooter Hut store for an exchange, credit, or refund (excluding shipping costs). Items must be unused and in "as new" condition, with e-scooters having less than 1km on the odometer.
What should I do if I received the wrong product or if something is missing?
A: If you’ve received the wrong item or something’s missing, please send a photo of the order, packing slip, and the items you received to our customer service team, and we’ll make it right.

4. Warranty and Servicing
Warranty Claims
I bought my scooter before 1 July 2025. What can I do?
A: We’re here to help with warranty-related issues, even though the original sale was through the previous company. If your scooter is from Kaabo, Inmotion, Segway, Evada, or Dualtron, you can bring it to a Scooter Hut store or ship it to our Melbourne repair centre.

How do remote customers handle warranty collections or repairs?
A: For customers who don’t live near a Scooter Hut store or don’t have easy access to one, we consider you a remote customer. In these cases, we can arrange a courier to collect your scooter. Simply submit your claim or contact our customer service team. If you no longer have the original box, please find a suitable replacement for shipping.
Will working on my e-scooter void my warranty?
A: General maintenance like inflating and changing tyres or tyre tubes, replacing grips, and adjusting brake callipers can be performed by the owner without voiding the scooter's warranty. However, if the scooter's internals need to be opened, any wiring exposed, or major repairs are needed, these services must be performed by one of our experienced technicians. If unsure, please call your local Scooter Hut store or our customer service team to confirm.

Do you service all scooter models?
A: We service all scooters from our current range. Check our service and repairs page for more details and booking options.

Do you offer mobile or on-site servicing where a technician comes to me?
A: No, we don’t provide mobile or on-site servicing. You’ll need to bring your scooter to your nearest Scooter Hut store for servicing by our team.

Do I need a licence to ride an electric scooter?
A: No licence is required to ride an electric scooter in Australia.
